How to compare caterers

Brooks Green: your questions answered

Do you come out to small places like Brooks Green?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

How far is Brooks Green from London?

About 36 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can you trade at our festival or fair?

Send us the details, and we will reply with our availability and what we need.

How much does festival paella catering cost in Brooks Green?

We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a price.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Is the paella gluten-free?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.

Do you have vegan options at events?

Yes, always. A vegan paella pan sits alongside the meat and seafood pans.

Space, weather and the venue

Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Trader information and site rules
  • A level pitch on firm ground
  • Vehicle access before and after the event

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.
